The American, who won 6-4, 6-3 against the Belarusian, has now won her last five games against top 10 players.
Sabalenka plays Elena Rybakina today to determine the second qualifier from her group.
Yesterday in the other group, Ons Jabeur of Tunisia beat Marketa Vondrousova 6-4, 6-3 for her first win at the tournament and Iga Swiatek beat Coco Gauff.
Afterwards, an emotional Jabeur announced she was donating part of her prize money to help Palestinians, saying: “It’s very tough seeing children and babies dying every day. It’s heartbreaking.”
